A CHAT WITH A VICTIM OF DOWNS OF LIFE
Hello friend, is me Preciousminwon
How are you?
You don't look bright today.....
I have observed this for some time now
She responded: Life has been unfair to me
I'm lost in this big world
Hey. ...tell me what is it?
She responded: (in tears)
Why do I feel the way I feel?
Why do I think the way I do?
why do I see things the way I see them?
Why do I react to issues the way I do?
Is not really helping me to grow?
It is eating me up?
Why are people always complaining about me?
Could it be out of jealousy or hatred.
But even people I know and trust at some points complain about me and my attitude
They keep talking but they don't know how I got here.
Preciousminwon: What really happened?
What do you think could be the reason?
She responded (still tears):
It could be my past experiences
yes horrible pasts.
It could be the people I listen to
It could be what I have been watching and even spending time to read
I wasn't hard but life taught me to be hard
I used to be courageous but series of failures has turned me into a coward in the face of challenges though I try to be strong
I was a lively and accommodating person but numbers of betrayals has made me accept the life of loneliness even when I'm in a crowd I hear only myself
Heart breaks has made me decide not to love again
Hmmmmmmm!
DEAR READER,
This could be you.
Yes you reading this
If this is you
Then this is MY LETTER TO YOU
Dear friend,
I know how you feel
I understand what you are going through
Yes I do
Because Iam a survivor.
Yes I am
Many times I pretended to b fine and strong even when I was crushed and couldn't find tangible pieces of me
Just the way you are doing right now
I cried when eyes were off me but pretended to be smiling when an eye came my direction
I write to reach out to you this day.........
You are strong.
You are bold
You can love again
You can succeed if you choose to
Don't be hard on yourself anymore
Take a deep breath
Debunk the past and live in the present having hope of a better future
Be deliberate about your new association.
Decide what you want to spend your time
choose who you want to listen to
Decide to face life and all it will present with boldness
Begin on a new page
Work on a better version of you
Transcribe your true person into all you do, think and say.
You deserve a breath of new air
You deserve to enjoy life
You are Special!
Yours in love,
(A survivor)
